It was some junk asking about the Lowes water and gas man of the year.

Hi Pytrin,

I think your idea of creating a forum sounds like a very fun and exiting project.

Don't know if my coding is up to par, but I can contribute with design, Usability and also have a lot of experience with projects in general.

If you decide to go forward with this, I'd be more than happy to help.

My msn is chuck_billy@hotmail if things start to happen.... :)

I am quite willing to contribute to coding a new forum. For crying out loud, if a huge community of web developers can't make their own forum, what is the world coming to?

Agreed, coding standards will be important. I like the AJAX idea, too.

The SketchUp forum used to use vBulletin, and it was very nice. Loved it.

I'd love to contribute to a new forum as well, both in the area of (software) design and implementation

Lol, I can't remember which topic (it was a while ago), but you told someone to search scroogle. I clicked on the link to see what it was since I'd never heard of it before, only to be pleasantly surprised...... :P
